Why Compost is Nature’s Best Fertilizer: 5 Microbial Benefits for Roots

 

🦠 1. Nitrogen-Fixing Bacteria

These microbes convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form plants can absorb, fueling leafy growth.

🧫 2. Phosphorus-Solubilizing Fungi

They break down soil-bound phosphorus and release it to support root development and flowering.

🔄 3. Decomposers


Fungi and bacteria decompose organic materials, releasing a steady stream of nutrients over time.

🛡️ 4. Biocontrol Agents

Some microbes outcompete or suppress pathogens in the soil, acting like natural antibiotics for your plants.

These beneficial fungi form networks with plant roots, extending their reach and improving nutrient uptake.
